Give your opinion on the following:

1. Are you in favor of political set up in our country today? Why or

why not?

Not at all.According to what I've seen, today's political setup

is very different from those in the upper echelons. In today's
reality, our country's economy has only gotten worse because of
those people who only love to spend money on themselves. They
spend the people's money on some rubbish fake sand, and it is not
acceptable to me since it almost cost a lot of money and even
borrowed some from another country. The government's track
record regarding human rights and democracy is undoubtedly
disturbing. It has run roughshod over human rights, its political
opponents, and the country’s democratic institutions to other
countries. The combination of the Philippines’ powerful presidency
and the malleability of most of its political institutions is resulting
in significant democratic backsliding.

2. Soon, the candidates will be campaigning for their political career.

Which do you choose, the TRAPO (Traditional/Conservative
politicians) or Liberal politicians? Why?

We are aware that the election is approaching, and

candidates for all positions are beginning to plan their campaigns.
However, if I were to vote, I would unquestionably support liberal
politicians over others. Why? As you are aware, TRAPO will do
anything, including dirty things, to win elections. How could we
vote for them if we doubted their ability to lead our country and if
their intentions were not pure from the start? That is why I prefer
to vote for liberal politicians because they are either more
trustworthy. They have the potential to affect change in our
country, in my opinion. They put a priority on the separation of
powers and the importance of the state.
